SMU signed Jerry LeVias to a football scholarship in 1965 primarily because he was an exceptionally talented ...

Re: CFP ranking update

So, we are projected to play at South Bend and if we win that game play in austintatious.

However if we win out we get a bye.

Championship Poll

This poll and post is in memory of Waldorf. For those of you have been following PonyFans before the millennium - I was WaldorfΓÇÖs running buddy. He tragically died of caner 11 years ago and in my humble opinion was the funniest poster on this website (research his posts [he was also Captain E.J ...

Re: Historic SMU Snubs


Why it starts with the evil cow in Austin. No other private school in TX has our power to compete with them. Remember we beat them three times in six years and it drove them insane. If you can get your hands on ΓÇ£A Payroll to Meet,ΓÇ¥ It will enlighten you. Follow the money. Who benefits. I ...

Re: Historic SMU Snubs

True snubs to be sure. This latest was expected.

First, the committee did all it could to ensure SMU didn't get ranked over Liberty. First, the committee didn't rank SMU even though the two other polls had us ranked. Second, the committee ranked us one spot behind Liberty and the other two polls ...

Re: Will SMU pass Liberty if we BOTH win?

The more I am reading on this the more I am concerned about us not being able to leapfrog them in the CFP standings.

If we both WIN, I almost feel like we have to win BIG and they need to struggle to a tight victory vs. a salty team from Las Cruces, thus helping the committee move us past them in ...

Re: WEATHER UPDATE --- RAIN ALL DAY @ Tulane

Rain - who cares!

One of the Ponies greatest victories came in Little Rock against the piggies in 1983. Buckets of rain plus a tornado warning stopping the game. The Mustang Band had to shelter under the stands while the field was evacuated.

Mustangs won 17-0. Ark had not been shutout for 20 years ...

Re: TCU already worried they cant keep up

Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it.

So Congress passes Federal legislation regulating NIL. Just think this will be placed in the Dept of Education- does Saben,tcuseless, bu, tech and company want the Dept of Education in their athletic departments?

Or, if Ted Cruz gets his way, do ...
